"Everyday applications are rejected by Apple's silly review process for various reasons, it's nothing new. We have heard countless stories of developers complaining how unfair the App Store approval system is and how Apple needs to change their ways, but this story has a bit of humor, so we think it is worth telling.
Three recent college graduates formed a small development company called Alkali Media and decided to try their hand at the App Store by creating a relatively harmless soundboard application titled CrudeBox, and to their amazement, the application was rejected by Apple. CrudeBox contained 16 high-quality sounds that consisted of the usual fart noises, burping sounds, laughing, coughing, and what have you. The application was rejected for being too offensive..."
Growth driven by digital software and console hardware sales.
The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
These new paid games, game trials and “buy once, play anywhere” pricing are coming to Play.
come on apple...you are a bunch of prudes!
